Book Description
It is an important time for scholars of communication to develop rich theory addressing critical applied interpersonal issues. Stress, substance abuse, violence, health problems, divorce, safety, and aging are but a few of the problems individuals address in their day-to-day interpersonal communication. That communication is critical to coping successfully with these challenges. Stressing the timeliness of such applied contributions, the International Communication Association instituted a regular feature in its newsletter on communication matters, and focused its most recent conference on applied issues in communication. This edited volume, containing individual chapters by original researchers, explores socially meaningful contributions to the study of interpersonal problems involving language and social action.

Communications Matters

ISBN: 9780990759805

Languages : en
Pages : 80
Book Description
A hallmark of spiritual maturity is our ability to get along with others. No greater way we demonstrate this ability than through our communication with others. Yet, our communication with family, co-workers and church family often falls short. We seek to be understood, rather than to understand. We speak before we think. We talk too much. Poor communication hinders our ability to grow and mature as individuals, causes breakdown in the family and diminishes our effectiveness in the workplace and in our churches. Ultimately, we fail to glorify God. Communication Matters is a 31-day devotional that applies scripture about communication to everyday life scenarios. Addressing issues of the mind, heart, speaking, listening, resolving conflict, and other issues each day includes a devotional writing, scriptural reference, a daily challenge/reflection and a prayer. Communication Matters is ideal for individual or group devotional time; empowers readers to develop a biblical understanding of communication; and provides tools to improve interpersonal communication skills.

How we communicate with each other matters greatly. Our identity, our friendships and marriages, our families, and our culture are the product of how we speak to one another.
